Barely got any benefit from Plaquenil (hydroxychloroquin) - it helped the arthritic hand pain some, that's it. But it did bother my eyes...they felt more dry & irritated. So I stopped the med.
I get more help from Flagyl, nettles, Copaiba essential oil & Clove essential oil for joint pain.

I've taken 2 a day for about a year. I don't have any problems taking it anymore but when I first started it I herxed pretty severely.
My herx was a fever, sore throat, personality changes, heart palpitations, headaches and pain.
